Buddha's Posture and a Moron's Posture
(from the Master HORA article "Recognition," 2004)
By using the auto-training method, created by Johannes Schultz [1], and similar techniques, to reach a state of relaxation in a few minutes in the coachmen's posture[2], you have to train on average for 2 - 3 years. For those who do not know what this posture is: it is a person, reclining in a chair with his head dropped and his mouth ajar. In this position there is nothing even remotely resembling the posture of Buddha in meditation. It is important to see and understand that Buddha sits firmly, stably, with a straight back and a smile that does not allow for his head to drop. You may run an experiment ― sit down with a straight back, than smile and try to drop your head ... You will find it can be done, but only by applying significant effort. And also the neck may hurt a little ... You are not Buddha, though. But the Buddha's nature is in you, as you can see, and it is defending itself.
Side point-caution: In our reality a "would-be master" will turn this experiment into some kind of "meditation" from "the ancient pre-Buddhist tradition." Their "ancientness" begins with my description of this experiment. Do not fall for another "initiation" by some sort of a "master" of the "ancient tradition"...
If my opinion seems to be biased to you (Buddha ― good, Schultz ― bad), let's conduct another experiment with the same hundred present result. Stand up in front of a mirror, close your eyes, drop your head, relax your facial and jaw muscles and open your mouth a little bit without straining. Then, by keeping this face slowly raise your head. Open your eyes without changing the expression on your face. You will see that the word "moron", which I use further, is an understatement. In fact, mystics call such beings with such faces by a slightly different name. Warning: This experiment is not recommended for easily impressionable people.
You may also read excerpts from the patent (facial expression), for a deeper understanding of the correlations.
One can understand that these postures are not a mystery for me. To me the mystery is elsewhere. How can one meditate professionally in a coachman's posture?
The coachman ― is a posture of a person who has eaten too much, and at the very least is tired and sleepy. Add to this position a specific respiration (snoring), and an open mouth (drooling saliva) ... ― if this is not a moron, then who is? No master would ever take such a person (posture) as a student in the East, because such student has the look and energy structure of a person who needs complex treatment. Then there must be a foundation for a moron's energy structure in Europe to become the basis for a universally recognized auto-training (self-suggestion) with the use of the word "meditation." This foundation (posture) is easy to see ― just look at the medieval portraits of the elite (perceptions of beauty) before the age of the Renaissance. Being beautiful was dangerous for one's own life ― one could anger the elite and find oneself on a bonfire. The coachman ― is a posture of a person who ate too much, is tired and sleepy, etc. at the very least.
It turns out that in any case Schultz was developing Freud's theory in his own way; otherwise he would not have been accepted by the science community. But he also relies on the East ― just the term "meditation," which he uses, is enough to support this. As a result, such a synthesis of East and West gave birth to "revelation" ― a moron's posture. It is infinitely far from the perfect posture of Buddha, just like the methods themselves. One posture ― laxity ― aspiration to degradation; another posture ― anchoring/stability ― is the pursuit of perfection. Imagine how much self-confidence and arrogance one should have to actually counter Buddha's posture with one's own version of self-improvement ― the posture of a moron. The fact that this is generally accepted ― is something to think about. After all, widespread self-assurance and arrogance on a massive scale do not usually appear out of nowhere. It's the 25-th frame all over again, "forging" self-consciousness under the pretence of a spirit of democracy.
And now in a moron's posture (coachman), proposed by those in authority, people began to "meditate" professionally and instill into themselves a feeling of heaviness, warmth, and sleepiness.
If you convince yourself of something that is not there ― either in the East or West ― there is only one result. If a person sees, hears or feels something that isn't real, such disorders are called hallucinations. And when the energy structure of a moron is "cleverly" imposed on a normal human being (self-hypnosis), it leads only to a split personality, i.e. to schizophrenia. And you don't need to be a health expert to understand that the circle has been closed: they are leading towards what they are treating. Think about it...
I sympathize with the person who was born a moron. But if a healthy person is engaged in brainwashing himself, and convinces him/herself of what is not real ― this condition should have caused concern at least in one specialist, since this has been ongoing for many decades... But this didn't happen.
I'm talking about it not without basis. There are a lot of enlightened masters nowadays that professionally process any information, techniques, etc. through themselves, after which they announce a wise verdict. For those who don't know I will explain: this skill ― "processing through one's self" ― belongs to the highest levels of mystical knowledge. The goal is reached, when the object of meditation becomes you. This method has one more condition: the object of study and a researcher must both become one and separate without any damage to the psyche, and the consciousness of the researcher (mystic, yogi). But what if this does not happen...?
Nowadays mysticism ― is a symbolism, superstition, brainwashing, plate spinning, contacting ghosts, and etc. And all of these are mixed in with the application of hands, passes, and seasoned with exotics of shamanism from around the world. And because of the absence of a normal enlightened mystical path to discover the world, we found a different method ― suggestion and self-suggestion (see the moron's posture). Accordingly, we are convinced that self-suggestion and real mystical knowledge in essence is the same thing. And even without these convictions we had enough Napoleons, and now they are being confidently squeezed out by "enlightened masters". The goal is reached, when the object of meditation becomes you ― the goal has been achieved: one became an enlightened Napoleon. And having forgotten Napoleon's fate, another one went out to "initiate" the country.
In general, there is only one conclusion: in the end Schultz's moron turned out to be "cooler" than all of our "enlightened" processors, through themselves masters. They see everything ― but it turns out that they did not see either Buddha or a moron ― could not tell them apart. This is ― Buddha and this is ― a coachman; this is ― an enlightened mind, and here is ― the mind that stays in the dark. And you don't need any advance mystical levels to distinguish that, all you need is a little attention ― stand up in front of a mirror and look (see above: Buddha's posture and a coachman's posture).
But in general ― why do we need their some kind of royal meditative posture? In our case an ordinary coachman with his posture ― is the beacon of wisdom. Universal presumption and arrogance on a massive scale does not just appear out of nowhere. Well, if a coachman is above the saint-enlightened king: ... then we are for sure no less than a coachmen.
Through the use of the 25-th frame, very strange forms sometimes are imposed into self-consciousness. Implementation of such form in self-consciousness ― initiation ― is possible only when it is flattering to one's self-consciousness. This form (see a moron's posture), which is not visible from the outside, began to disguise itself in the yoga posture, and assert its right everywhere. But inside it still retains the energy structures of its object ― the same moron. No, I'm not quite right: it is a refined moron ― because now he is in the lotus posture. We get the same enlightened Napoleon again. When presumptuousness has become widespread, when they have become massively initiated, then it has become impossible to spot such an "enlightened" moron ― there is no one left. Because, as it turns out, in life we can be lower than a coachman ― but still above the king. That's the whole flattery (see above: you will not judge yourself... a lifestyle choice).
Until you accept the circle ― there is no waking up from the 25-th frame.
